Makeup salons are the city’s latest affordable luxury, the next best thing to having an on-call pro. These chic studios offer professional color applications ranging from eyes-only to the full-on Kardashian treatment.

Think of them as cosmetics version of a local nal place of blow-dry bar — which means quick and inexpensive, averaging around $50 for a full face, and you’re in and out in 45 minutes. Added bonus: There’s no awkward product-hustling at the counter.

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics

174 Ludlow St., 212-675-2404

David Phelps for Obsessive Compulsive CosmeticsOCC sessions start with lip color. The shade you choose, whether it’s a neon pink or a subdued nude, signals how daring you’re willing to get. It’s a smart strategy for a brand known for its vibrant colors. Applications feel like a tutorial: When one eye is done, artists ask if you’d like to try applying shadow and liner to the other. OCC has a prototype of its upcoming mascara stashed behind the register to beef up your lashes. A full face is $75, redeemable in product, and walk-ins are welcome. www.occmakeup.com

Benefit Cosmetics

168 Court St., Brooklyn, 347-464-0804

Courtesy of BenefitBenefit’s philosophy is all about brow power. Shape them up, and the rest of the makeup can be minimal. A festive, girly energy fills the store, so getting pretty is fun. A quick mini-makeover is free with any of their waxing and grooming services. An a la carte makeup application is $60. www.benefitcosmetics.com

Blushington

Le Parker Meridien, 119 W. 56th St., 646-410-2208

Courtesy of BlushingtonA Drybar blowout, Tenoverten nails — and now, a face by Blushington. Open since July, the elegant, peach-toned Blushington completed Le Parker Meridien’s transformation into a one-stop beauty destination. Ask their friendly artists for custom makeup, or pick from a dozen predesigned looks in their photo menu. The “Pure & Natural,” Blushington’s most popular option at $55, is a 45-minute full makeup session. Meaning it’s pretty, but more suited to night than day. “On the Move,” which is just $25, is a better bet for a fresh face. www.blushington.com

Downstairs, Pucker gets next-level: There’s a shower, spray-tanning, dressing rooms, a hairstylist — and clients can even leave their heavy work totes for next-morning pickup. But all these work-to-nightclub amenities don’t overshadow the masterful makeup itself. Creative director Sandino, whose contouring takes cheekbones to new heights, handpicked all the studio’s artists. A 60-minute session is $60. www.pucker.co

Sarah MechlingMusic and conversation blend into a delightful hum in this intimate, six-station studio. Makeup artists share thoughtful skin-care advice while creating radiant complexions. Pricing depends on makeup intensity: The $25 “Touch Up” beautifies you in minutes, while “You . . . Only Better,” $50, is just the right amount of color for an interview or daytime date. Temptu airbrush foundation is included in the next two more deluxe options — a plus, as other salons usually charge extra. Unlimited monthly memberships are $250. More good news: A Midtown East location is opening in November. www.rougeny.com
